Major Construction
As anyone that has been here more than once can tell, this blog is way different. Different design, different color, all around different. It's also missing a bunch of stuff. I'm in the process of redoing this blog. Blogger keeps bragging about how much easier beta blogging is, so I'm trying it, but it lost me everything that I had added over the last year. I'm going to see if I can add it back, but you don't use normal html tags, it's widgets? Anyone that has been dealing with beta and can help me add links and such back to the sidbars, your help would be greatly appreciated. I also upgraded to Internet Explorer 7, which also dropped a lot of stuff from my blog when I tried to view it. I've tried Firefox and get the same problem. So maybe starting from scratch with Beta will get me the ability to use Firefox. I'll see...if it doesn't work out I'll just go back to my old html user friendly format.

Gosh, you are scaring me about beta, I was just thinking about finally making the switch, but I am so afraid of losing everything. You are right, they do paint it as soo easy...

It's really not that bad. The good thing is that it saves your old blog whenever you switch over so you can click back to it without a problem and have everything still. I ended up going back and forth a few times until I started to get the hang of the beta system. I think it will be easier now that I'm getting it, but I guess just like anything else it takes some getting used to.
Beta Blogger is cool. You can use the widgets AND you can move them around AND you can still use regular HTML. I am using combinations of things.
Also, before I switched, I copied my old template to Notepad and brought things over bit by bit. I love the new look and the way things now appear. So all goodness.
Yea, I think I've got the hang of it now. Now that I know what I'm doing it is really a lot easier. I'm just so computer dumb that it takes me a little longer to figure things out on here. But now that I have I really do like beta better, it makes it a lot easier to change things around or even add them.
